Hi all, I made some big updates to my web page for my own ancestor Andrew Bryson (1752-1835) of PA, SC and NC. He lived in Rowan, Iredell, Buncombe, Haywood...
Everybody in the gene pool, a Bryson Surname DNA Project has now been launched! A few months ago I got involved in a DNA project on my maternal line and now...
Your father was Russell Fredrick and his father Gordon.....and??? You live in what state...they were born in what state? What country? What year??? Are you...
You mentioned chromosomes that are passed down in the male...how does a female fit in to the equation?? I am DNA illiterate...for the most part :) I have met...
Hi all, I'm not expert on DNA either, but I think I have the basics down. I've been following several DNA Surname studies with great interest. First of all,...
That may let my side out. My son doesnt have the Bryson name and my nephew, who was born a Bryson (my brother's son) was adopted by his step father and only...

Hi Carlene, Your nephew could take the test. If he was born a Bryson, it doesn't matter if his name is no longer Bryson, just as long as his Bryson bloodline...
Ok thanks Marty, I misunderstood about the name. I will mention it to him. He is an adult with 2 sons of his own now. Carlene Bryson Smith In a message dated...

Rebecca, I, too, am somewhat illiterate on DNA, but I heard that females have DNA that link them to Eve. This is passed from mother to daughter. I guess I...

Hello Brysons & Russell Bryson, I am looking for a Bryson family that moved to Wisconsin and eventually to the West Coast. Many of their males first and/or...
Hi Becky and Bryson cousins and friends, There are other types of DNA tests also (other than the Y-Chromosome test). There is one for women that tests their...
Apparently, from what Marty has explained....if your father is a Bryson or you have a Bryson brother by your father or a Bryson first cousin by your Bryson...
It is obvious we all have DNA :D ...still don't know if Eve really existed or not...but I am sure it would tie females to a common source of one sort or ...
Although the Bryson Surname Project (for now) is concerned with Y-chromosome testing, there are tests which females can take. On my maternal line a female ...
Hi, Thanks for your response. Women can't actually take the Y-chromosome test, but they play an important role in genealogy as we all know. For this project...
You've got it Rebecca. And you are also right regarding John Whidden Bryson. Since you know his father was not a Bryson, his descendant's DNA results would...
Who wants to wager whether or not most Bryson test results will match? It seems to me that there can't be too many different Bryson lines that don't have a...
Well..I had a few things explained to me once...apparently there were french heugonots with the name Brisson that at some point may have been changed to ...
The good news is though...while visiting a fellow Irishman, he had a book of Irish surnames in it and low and behold Bryson was actually in it. It was the ...
HI Bryson Family, Hey Marty, how are you doing, etc... I would like clarification on "Clan" although this has been debated and hashed over many times, I was...
Hi guys, I’m six hours ahead of you folks on the East Coast, so I wake up in the morning to read what went on the night before. Marty’s explanations, like...
Hi Diana, When I said "Clan", I meant it in the general sense, i.e. "Family", not as part of the "Clan System" as it were. I'm no expert on actual Clans and...
Well, I find this interesting. There is a singer in this British rock band called Oasis and he is of Irish descent.(Liam Gallagher) He could have been a twin...

I am married into Brysons in Scotland - our Scottish heraldry has us believing that any scots name ending in 'son' is related to the vikings and denotes the...
